Death throes of homeless people in the Český Krumlov region
GLOSEROVÁ, Zdeňka
The thesis deals with the problem of homeless people dying in the region of Český Krumlov. It focuses on homelessness, the causes of homelessness and also the posibilities of help. Further, the thesis encompasses information about dying and death, including the death of homeless people.Their death is connected to statements about organising social funerals, including available information from the Municipality of Český Krumlov and how many social funerals were organised between the years 2014-2018. A very often used technique at work is a semi-structured interview with social workers from the social department of the Municipality of Český Krumlov, Kaplice and Vyšší Brod and the caretaking personnel of the Hospital Český Krumlov, ltd. The individual testimonies are compared between each other. The testimonies of the respondents go allong the whole thesis where there is an effort of confrontation of information from professional literature and the interception of reality from experience. Another key source for this thesis is the evaluation of data from questionnaires given to people without a home that stay arond the area of Český Krumlov and focused on finding out their opinion on death and dying. The topic is accompanied by many ethical contexts. Firstly the fact of surviving as a homeless person, secondly the level of help that is provided by the state and what are the limits of the help possibilities. And last but not least, how this help is acutaly used and perceived by the homeless people.

Inheritance proceedings with a focus on selected issues expenditure in legal theory and practice
Kroupová, Michaela ; Pikola, Pavel (advisor) ; Jaromír, Jaromír (referee)
This thesis deals with the issue of inheritance procedure, and is focused on selected issues of expenses in legal theory and practice. The most notable changes in inheritance law became effective with the new Civil Code on January 1st 2014. A very important amendment to the funeral services law is in the process of approval at the moment.
Death is an integral part of everyone´s life. Everyone will die one day, we should think about the last farewell. Inheritance procedure is a very extensive and complex process. In case there is no one willing to prepare the funeral, the so called "social funeral" is organized by the municipality where the person died. The body is usually cremated and placed at the nearest appointed place. In some cases the municipality keeps the urns
at the office in order to save costs. The funeral is organized at the lowest cost possible.
The analytical part is focused on the "social funerals" and related expenses in specified cities of the Czech republic - Český Krumluv, Říčany and Šternberk. Afterwards, the number and costs of social funerals in selected districts of Prague is analyzed. Unfortunately not in all
of them, because some districts did not provide the data. The social funeral is not only for the case when the bereaved do not have the means, but also for the case when the family refuses to prepare the funeral for other reasons. One other option for people without financial resources could be self-organized funeral - without the assistance of a funeral service. Self-organized funerals are a very controversial topic. The funeral services of course refuse them, because it would reduce their business opportunities.

Analysis of funerals in the city of Brno from 2002 to 2012
ZOUFALÁ, Eliška
The main aim of the thesis is the organising of the social funerals if the organiser is the municipality. And thus the Brno municipality which is divided into quarters. These city quarters pursue through the agency of social divisions the administration of the social funerals. In the bachelor's thesis I deal with terms related to social funerals. I characterize the possibilities of burials at these days, the way and procedure of burying in the case of the social funeral. In the practical part of the thesis I struggle to answer the question whether is there the falling or the rising of social funerals in the city of Brno. I decided to employ a quantitative research and the method of a questionnaire survey.
